When the drive shaft 63 fixed to the center of the butterfly valve portion 61 is rotated by the actuator 65, the switching valve 60 swings. By swinging the switching valve 60, as shown in FIG. When the communication ports 25, 45 of the gas flow path 41 are opened, and the main exhaust flow path 23 is opened by the butterfly valve portion 61 as shown in FIGS. 4(a) and 5(a) In addition, the shutter valve portion 62 switches the communication ports 25 and 45 of the main exhaust flow channel 23 and the gas flow channel 41 of the confluence portion 40 to a closed state.

以上実施形態の排気熱回収装置10によれば、図3(a),(b)に示すように、排熱回収モードでは、切換えバルブ60のバタフライバルブ部61で主排気流路23が全閉され、切換えバルブ60のシャッタバルブ部62で主排気流路23と合流部40のガス流路41の各連通口25,45が全開されている。この状態で、エンジン55から排出されて上流側の排気管18より流れて来た排ガスGは、主排気流路23の下側の開口部24から熱交換部ガス流入部37に流れ、熱交換部ガス流入部37から熱交換器31と熱交換部ガス流出部38を通り、熱交換部ガス流出部38から合流部40のガス流路41を経由して、合流部40のガス流路41と主排気流路23の各連通口45,25から主排気流路23を通って下流側の排気管19へ流れる。そして、エンジン55から排出された排ガスGが熱交換器31の熱交換流路33を通る際に、熱交換器31の冷却媒体流路32を通る冷却水Wとの熱交換が行われて排熱が回収される。 According to the exhaust heat recovery device 10 of the embodiment described above, as shown in FIGS. Communicating ports 25 and 45 of the main exhaust channel 23 and the gas channel 41 of the confluence portion 40 are fully opened by the shutter valve portion 62 of the switching valve 60 . In this state, the exhaust gas G discharged from the engine 55 and flowing from the exhaust pipe 18 on the upstream side flows from the opening 24 on the lower side of the main exhaust passage 23 to the heat exchanging part gas inflow part 37 to exchange heat. From the gas inlet portion 37, through the heat exchanger 31 and the heat exchange portion gas outlet portion 38, from the heat exchange portion gas outlet portion 38, through the gas passage 41 of the junction portion 40, the gas passage 41 of the junction portion 40 , and flows through the main exhaust passage 23 from the communication ports 45 and 25 of the main exhaust passage 23 to the exhaust pipe 19 on the downstream side. When the exhaust gas G discharged from the engine 55 passes through the heat exchange passage 33 of the heat exchanger 31, heat is exchanged with the cooling water W passing through the cooling medium passage 32 of the heat exchanger 31, and the exhaust gas G is exhausted. heat is recovered.

また、図4(a),(b)に示すように、排ガス再循環モードでは、切換えバルブ60のバタフライバルブ部61で主排気流路23が全開され、切換えバルブ60のシャッタバルブ部62で主排気流路23と合流部40のガス流路41の各連通口25,45が全閉されている。この状態で、エンジン55から排出されて上流側の排気管18より流れて来た排ガスGは、バタフライバルブ部61で全開されている主排気流路23を通って下流側の排気管19へ流れる。この際、EGR配管50とエンジン55を接続する排気管53に設けられた図示しないバルブを開状態にすると、排気管53側の負圧により、一部の排ガスG1が主排気流路23の下側の開口部24から熱交換部ガス流入部37に流れ、熱交換部ガス流入部37から熱交換器31と熱交換部ガス流出部38を通り、熱交換部ガス流出部38から合流部40のガス流路41を経由して、EGR配管50の再循環流路51に流れる。これにより、熱交換器31で冷却水Wとの熱交換が行われて排熱が回収されると共に、エンジン55に排ガスG1が再循環されて燃費の改善が図られる。 4(a) and 4(b), in the exhaust gas recirculation mode, the butterfly valve portion 61 of the switching valve 60 fully opens the main exhaust passage 23, and the shutter valve portion 62 of the switching valve 60 opens the main exhaust passage. The communication ports 25, 45 of the gas flow path 41 of the exhaust flow path 23 and the confluence portion 40 are fully closed. In this state, the exhaust gas G discharged from the engine 55 and flowing from the exhaust pipe 18 on the upstream side passes through the main exhaust passage 23 which is fully opened by the butterfly valve portion 61 and flows to the exhaust pipe 19 on the downstream side. . At this time, when a valve (not shown) provided in an exhaust pipe 53 that connects the EGR pipe 50 and the engine 55 is opened, a part of the exhaust gas G1 is pushed downward under the main exhaust passage 23 due to the negative pressure on the exhaust pipe 53 side. It flows from the opening 24 on the side to the heat exchanging part gas inlet 37 , passes through the heat exchanger 31 and the heat exchanging part gas outlet 38 from the heat exchanging part gas inlet 37 , and flows from the heat exchanging part gas outlet 38 to the merging part 40 . , into the recirculation flow path 51 of the EGR pipe 50 . As a result, heat is exchanged with the cooling water W in the heat exchanger 31 to recover exhaust heat, and the exhaust gas G1 is recirculated to the engine 55 to improve fuel efficiency.

さらに、図5(a),(b)に示すように、排熱非回収モードでは、切換えバルブ60のバタフライバルブ部61で主排気流路23が全開され、切換えバルブ60のシャッタバルブ部62で主排気流路23と合流部40のガス流路41の各連通口25,45が全閉されている。この状態で、エンジン55から排出されて上流側の排気管18より流れて来た排ガスGは、バタフライバルブ部61で全開されている主排気流路23を通って下流側の排気管19へ流れる。この際、排ガスGは熱交換器31の熱交換流路33を通らないため、排熱は回収されない。さらに、排気管53に設けられたバルブは閉状態であるため、排ガスGは、EGR配管50の再循環流路51からエンジン55へ再循環しない。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, in the exhaust heat non-recovery mode, the butterfly valve portion 61 of the switching valve 60 fully opens the main exhaust passage 23, and the shutter valve portion 62 of the switching valve 60 The communication ports 25, 45 of the main exhaust flow path 23 and the gas flow path 41 of the junction 40 are fully closed. In this state, the exhaust gas G discharged from the engine 55 and flowing from the exhaust pipe 18 on the upstream side passes through the main exhaust passage 23 which is fully opened by the butterfly valve portion 61 and flows to the exhaust pipe 19 on the downstream side. . At this time, since the exhaust gas G does not pass through the heat exchange passage 33 of the heat exchanger 31, exhaust heat is not recovered. Furthermore, since the valve provided in the exhaust pipe 53 is closed, the exhaust gas G is not recirculated from the recirculation flow path 51 of the EGR pipe 50 to the engine 55 .

また、排気熱回収装置10によれば、図1に示すように、熱交換部30の冷却媒体入口管34と冷却媒体出口管35及びEGR配管50を上流側の排気管18側にそれぞれ配置し、また、切換えバルブ60を駆動させるアクチュエータ65を装置本体11の熱交換部30を成す第3筐体14の側面に取り付けたことにより、装置の全長及び横幅を短くすることができて小型化を図ることができ、かつ、車両の搭載性を向上させることができる。 Also, according to the exhaust heat recovery device 10, as shown in FIG. In addition, by attaching the actuator 65 for driving the switching valve 60 to the side surface of the third housing 14 forming the heat exchange section 30 of the device main body 11, the overall length and width of the device can be shortened and the size can be reduced. In addition, the mountability of the vehicle can be improved.

また、熱交換部30の熱交換流路33の開口面積が広く取れるため、通気抵抗を低くできる。さらに、切換えバルブ60がバタフライバルブ部61とシャッタバルブ部62を有しているため、スペースを有効に活用することができ、主排気流路23のみで対応が可能である。 Moreover, since the opening area of the heat exchange flow path 33 of the heat exchange part 30 can be widened, airflow resistance can be made low. Furthermore, since the switching valve 60 has the butterfly valve portion 61 and the shutter valve portion 62, the space can be effectively utilized, and the main exhaust passage 23 alone can be used.

さらに、熱交換部30とアクチュエータ65を隣接して配置することで、排ガスエネルギーが高く高温のエキゾーストマニホールド直下の位置でも搭載が可能になる。また、排ガス温度が高い部分を効率的に冷却することができ、熱交換器31の耐沸騰性を向上させることができる。 Furthermore, by arranging the heat exchange part 30 and the actuator 65 adjacently, it is possible to mount them even at a position directly below the exhaust manifold where the exhaust gas energy is high and the temperature is high. Moreover, the part where the exhaust gas temperature is high can be efficiently cooled, and the boiling resistance of the heat exchanger 31 can be improved.

尚、前記実施形態によれば、冷却媒体として冷却水を用いたが、冷却媒体は冷却水以外でも良い。 Incidentally, according to the above embodiment, cooling water is used as the cooling medium, but the cooling medium may be other than cooling water.
